    Reading XML

    What is the easiest way to parse a XML file in? It need to use free code. A short sample maybe?

    Compilers can produce warnings - make the compiler programmers happy: Use them!

    In C#?

    But if I want to use it with C# code. How do I do then?

    It appears that MS has already implemented a XML parser for you, see this article: http://www.xml.com/pub/a/2002/03/06/csharpxml.html

    Anything you want to do with files, or communication (like network).

    Just type in google: tcp stream C# or udp stream C#, in your case xml stream C#.

    Et voila everything you ever wanted to know.
    Its wonderfull to have a framework that holds such an excessive amount of tools (classes) already. They even give the tools very comprehensive names, one just needs to find them...

    Indeed...to read XML, one would be inclined to look for an XMLReader?
    If I did your homework for you, then you might pass your class without learning how to write a program like this. Then you might graduate and get your degree without learning how to write a program like this. You might become a professional programmer without knowing how to write a program like this. Someday you might work on a project with me without knowing how to write a program like this. Then I would have to do you serious bodily harm. - Jack Klein
